...three order. After Lynch and Bird had been retired, O'Brien knocked a very hot liner to Cook, who reached out for it with one hand and stopped it prettily, throwing it to first in time to cut off the runner. The first two men who went to the bat for Harvard scored. The nine started to work with a vim, and no one would have guessed that these were the only runs we were destined to make during the game. Soule took his base on balls and stole second. Hallowell hit cleanly to centre and Soule took third. Hallowell...
...game yesterday resulted in a well earned victory for Brown. Woodcock pitched a fine game, striking out nine men and holding the Harvard team down to seven scattering hits. At the bat he knocked out a home run and two singles. Brown won because she bunched her hits, earning four of her six runs. Harvard's seven hits, on the other hand, were distributed through five innings. The only thing about our playing that seemed to puzzle Brown was the base running, yet this was not perfect. We might have had one more run as easily...
...first man to come to the bat in the ninth was Weeks. Howe, who had taken Bates' place in the seventh, gave him a base on balls. Thurston struck out for the third time. Two wild pitches in succession advanced Weeks to third. Steere hit safely and Weeks came in. Steere stole second, and Mendenhall's hit advanced him to third. Mendenhall stole second. Woodcock, who had already made a home run and a single, came to the bat. He was the third man in succession to hit safely, and Steere and Mendenhall came in. In the confusion Upton threw...
...base to the Bostons in the last inning the nine as a whole stood perfectly steady, not showing the slightest sign of that tendency to get rattled which has defeated so many Harvard teams. Cook made the one error of the game, fumbling a hot ball from Bennett's bat. It was so dark at the time that the error must be considered very excusable. Alward took Dickinson's place in left field, and played a very pretty game. He accepted all his chances, and two of his catches were hard balls to get. Hallowell played a beautiful game...
...second by a base on balls given to Sullivan, and came home on Quinn's hit and Bennett's sacrifice. This ended the scoring for Boston till the ninth inning. Then Howe gave three bases on balls in succession, and hit the next man who came to the bat. The next man after him knocked a grounder to Cook, who fumbled it. Altogether four runs came in, and the Bostons won an unexpected victory...
